Something Cute

Hi one and all,
Here is a project we did at one of our classes and it was a great success with everyone loving it.
You could just make the file box in different colours and different DSP to hold your ready made cards i.e. baby, children, male, female , etc. It would be so easy to find your cards when you are in a hurry.
But best of all it is a lovely gift to give someone special.
Enjoy Gail.
